After longish drives my coolant overflows. Temp gauge sits exactly in the middle but as soon as I park after a drive it overflows. It could be my radiator but I'm not 100% sure. Thermostat was replaced only a few months ago, and my cap was replaced at the same time. Any other ideas as to what it could be?

Internal leak, exhaust gases goes into the coolant line either through head gasket or cracked cylinder head.

I don't think its the head gasket because my oil isn't milky or anything. Same as mine before. No signs of water in oil or oil in the water. My cylinder head had cracks so the exhaust gases escape in the cooling system. -------------------- God made man....
